I never had Virex.
As I wrote I installed - a fresh OS 10.2.4 - Apple's Security update - X11 (Feb.,vers.2) - x11SDK
Sorry - I forgot to mention that I also installed - OSX Developer Kit - and MacGimp
Maybe the Gimp installed the sw-directory?
Now that I've deleted the sw as you explained it was possible to install fink. Thanks for this help!
Two questions remain: 1. Has the sw been usefull for something - do I (or any app.) have to miss it? 2. The Terminal is till going crazy. Your lines
cd / grep -rI /usr/share/init/tcsh/rc
don't make any difference. Afterwards I just can't enter anything anymore.
What's this?

Ah yes, there it is. What should I do now?
If you are using Virex, and want to continue using it, then what I've been unofficially recommending is:
1) Shut Virex down if it's running. 2) Remove the /sw directory with
sudo rm -rf /sw
3) Install Fink 4) Once Fink is working, install the following packages: dlcompat, curl, and openssl--these provide the same libraries that Virex put in its /sw directory. 5) You should be then able to run Virex again.

No, as I just wouldn't know how to do this modification
I believe this is harmless, then. You could try searching your system for it:
cd / grep -rI /usr/share/init/tcsh/rc
